In shocking twist, fake gun gets suspect shot

This bodycam footage from California shows an encounter between police officers and a transient person who refused to leave an area business. During the interaction, the suspect draws what appears in every way to be a Glock 17 handgun, at which point the officers open fire. After the fact, the handgun was revealed to be an air-powered pellet gun loaded with a legitimate Glock magazine. The suspect survived his injuries, but viewer discretion remains advised. Bewilderingly, the suspect's fake gun had a real Glock magazine, loaded with actual 9-millimeter rounds, seated. While the brand of pistol here was not disclosed, airsoft pistols such as those made by Umarex are so realistically replicated that they can seat real magazines, although they are unable to fire.
